Allow users to add projects without owners

Open tinnei opened this issue 4 years ago • 3 comments

From discord channel #hwc-feature-request:

1: Make this a directory for ALL projects in the world right now
Currently this platform seems to only encourage ideas for new projects rather than listing established projects that volunteers are already involved with. As a potential volunteer I’m currently searching all over the internet to find ways I can help out but its so hard to find a good directory of opportunities. 

Rather than 'create project' needing a dedicated owner, maybe anyone could list (and write a description) for projects that exist in the world but they are not necessarily the 'owner'.

Suggestions:

  • Add a separate section for project without owners -- similar to "create project" but these projects with have automatic tags "Project without owners" or "need out reach to owners".

IMHO it'd be fine for people to submit projects they don't 'own.' I'm sure those projects would appreciate the visibility and help.

Can I take this one? Should be a fairly straightforward change in the models
